HC Deb 14 April 1983 vol 40 cc427-8W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what was the total sum of public money given to (a) Kraft United Kingdom and (b) the Kirkby Kraft plant in each of the last five years.

Mr. MacGregor

I regret that it is not possible to provide the information in the form requested except at disproportionate cost. However, I can state that no significant amounts of selective financial assistance have been granted to Kraft Foods Ltd.; just over £½ million has been paid in regional development grants in amounts over £25,000.
